That is a very good point.
Ok, so drum brakes are ok. But in looking over the thing overall....wow...what a POS. Already rusting....couldn't believe it. Flimsy feel to stuff....weird design for the steering and stuff....just doesn't seem well engineered.
Whats worse is the Tahoe hybrid.....HOW do you change the spark plugs on the passenger side of the motor?! They are completely 100% blocked by the huge "Hybrid Unit" they stuffed in there. So first you have to disassemble and remove the 300Volt control unit.....nice. All that weight and useless technology to gain a whole 5-7 mpg in the city. Rating of 20/20.....thats horrible.
After sitting in and looking at the sprinter....who would want a pickup? Its like having a small warehouse on wheels!! And still has MB stuff/motor/diesel.
